Does this include the Vita TVs?
I don't know but would it make that much of a difference anyway?
Ermm i think so, but the sales have been really low for the Vita TV anyway. That being said sales could of risen since the huge price drop.
RIP ps vita.
The only systems tracking above their last gen counterparts are PS4 and XB1. Dedicated handhelds are dead.
I think you need to look up the definition of dead. Looking at the front page of this site, I would say the opposite.
A combined 66million units sold between 3DS and Vita... :< That is almost as much as either the ps3/xbox360 sold last gen total, it is over 6 times either the X1 or Wii-u. Don't really know what else to say.
